TOR? No offense but you're so naive while believing you're smart.
TOR network gets a huge amount of LE attention.
In the plain vanilla Internet you get NSA spying but seldom active monitoring, in other words your recorded Internet activity stands still in a storage device but never gets monitored by humans, unless you did something really bad.
In tor you'd always get nsa spying + active LE monitoring + malware infection attempts every single day

I was under the impression that it was more secure that it's harder to monitor than the normal browsers.

TOR was good till the fucken sick pedophiles took over and the silk road busts. I won't even go near it anymore.

the website was launched in February 2011; development had begun six months prior...
In October 2013, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) shut down the websiteSilk Road (marketplace) - Wikipedia
So it took just 2 years for them to shut down the site, they hacked the site in just a few months, most of those 2 years were spent gathering court-quality evidence, judge warrants, and quietly monitoring in case a higher priority crime (likely terrorism related) was spotted.

if you use Vpn to download TOR they will not know your downloading it. also always keep your vpn on as you are using tor that way you netprovider will not know you are using it.
But regardless it not against the law to use tor. also Use a virtual machine or boot up using tails os there will be no info to write on your drive no info kept you are safe

While not illegal to use/download TOR,
it is the wild west, a lawless, you're on your own web
point you can actually expect to download spyware with it

Nobody wanting privacy (for legal purposes, I'm not advocating/ condoning to break any law) should install any dark web on their PERSONAL computer, they should expect spyware to read their personal files. Don't rely on VPN/proxies, they may not help.

For privacy, they should use a burner computer, with no personal files whatsoever, a prepaid modem, etc.
Just like Dr Jekyll having his own separate computer to use when becoming Mr Hyde for his wild activities.

Even church pastors have their hidden prepaid smartphones or laptops to watch porn privately, even though porn ain't illegal.
Using the same computer for TOR believing VPNs will save your privacy? Come on guys can't believe you're so naive.

Did you watch today's 'Vault 7' wikileaks release?
They can hack Iphones, Android, turn TVs mics on
and you believe TOR is spyware free?
especially since wikileaks now accepts leaks submitted via TORWikiLeaks:Tor - WikiLeaks
So you think TOR ain't a top priority for spies?

Using our anonymous access package (see below) you can prevent internet spies knowing that your computer has connected to Wikileaks.

Most Wikileakers do not need this extra security, and there are simpler and possibly safer alternatives for once-off high-risk leaks (see Submissions). But for those who are at risk and want to access Wikileaks from the comfort of their homes or offices or need to bypass Internet censorship, Tor (Onion Routing) is an excellent solution.
As if paying a homeless drunk $200 to buy a prepaid phone for you was that hard
